Crossing the famine, I am a poor fish, and my descendants have to work hard

Zhao Yuanlan didn't come back until the evening.

"Brother, what took you so long to come back?"

"When I went to see the emperor, His Majesty dug up all of Lord Song's past affairs. Some of them were inconvenient to punish before, but now there is an inducement, so they are punished for multiple crimes, and the evidence is solid. He was directly exiled and his property was confiscated. I helped to organize some of the evidence."

Sure enough, the national treasury was enriched again.

It was better in ancient times. Trial did not require various procedures. If you committed a crime at noon, your house would be searched in the afternoon.

"So, today's incident is a reminder for us. You still have to put your marriage on the agenda as soon as possible."

"Thank you, little sister."

"Have you had dinner tonight?"

"Not yet, have you eaten yet, little sister?"

"I've eaten, you go eat."

"Okay, then little sister, you take a rest."

"it is good."

Zhao Yuanzhen stayed at Zhao Yuanlan's place for one night and then went back.

There are a lot of things waiting for her at home.

Go to Zhuangzi to see how the ceramics are being fired!

This kind of small bottle does not require much technical content. The only difficulty is the adaptation of the bottle cap and the bottle.

When Zhao Yuanzhen returned, the first furnace had already started burning.

This kind of small bottle can be cooked in about 6 hours.

Zhao Yuanzhen gave the drawings of the toilet, water tank, drain, washbasin, etc. to the ceramic master.

There were 15 people on the ceramics side, and Zhao Yuanzhen selected a person in charge and changed his name to Zhang Tao.

Zhao Yuanzhen helped others in kneading clay and shaping it in the ceramic workshop.

In the afternoon, the kiln was opened for the first batch of small bottles.

This batch is 1000 pieces.

After checking, the breakage rate is very low, only about 2%, which is completely acceptable.

I put the bottle and lid on and they fit perfectly.

Then install a wooden stopper on each lid to make the bottle leak-proof.

After the first batch was successfully fired, everyone put the small bottles they had made over the past few days into the kiln.

There are three kilns in total, firing together, and this time we can produce 3000 pieces.

Two kilns can be fired a day, earning about 2 yuan, which is more than enough to supply the instant noodle shop.

Continue to pinch bathroom products.

Such large items take a long time to transport and are heavy, requiring a crane to transport them back and forth.

You can complete three sets a day.

Zhao Yuanzhen planned to burn some stocks for a few days before opening the bathroom store.

For the bathroom shop, let’s use the tea shop.

The shop is not very big, just over 100 square meters, which is enough.

Today's bathroom products only include bathtubs, wash basins, floor drain basins, toilets, squat toilets, and water tanks.

And pair it with tissue paper.

Then I worked in the ceramic workshop for a few days making ceramics, and then I thought the instant noodle shop was almost done, so I went back.

The noodle making factory and seasoning making factory of the instant noodle shop have been completed.

The warehouse is not yet completed.

Zhao Yuanzhen customized a set of instant noodle machines.

Large glass dough kneading funnel, noodle pressing machine with wooden shaft and stone roller, noodle cutting knife, wave curve conveyor belt, glass soft water spraying pipe, instant noodle resting board.

Because there is no electricity, the machines are all hand-cranked.

Put the flour and water in a certain proportion into the dough mixing bucket, turn the rocker, and the machine drives the dough mixing machine through the wooden gear, and the mixed flour is sent to the stone roller noodle pressing machine. The dough is pressed into dough sheets, and there are three stone rollers, each thinner than the last, so that the dough sheets will become thinner and thinner. When it comes out of the third noodle pressing machine, it is the thickness of instant noodles.

The dough is then transferred to the cutter and evenly divided into 15 cm wide sheets, which are then cut directly into noodles using finer and tighter blades.

The noodles pass through the wave conveyor belt and are pressed into a wave shape, which is the shape of instant noodles we are familiar with. In this state, the glass soft water spray pipe above will spray out fine water mist to increase the toughness of the instant noodles.

When reaching the resting plate, the instant noodles are cut into 15X15 square wide cakes.

Workers need to quickly collect the instant noodles on the resting plate and take them away for the final step: frying.

More than a dozen special large shallow pots are set up to quickly fry the instant noodles, fish them out and set them aside in an oil control area to drain.

Wrap it with oil paper, five small packages make a large package, wrap it with oil paper, and then add a bottle of seasoning.

Due to the problem of low productivity, only five packets of seasoning can be shared from one bottle, but of course the quantity is definitely sufficient.

One pound of flour can produce about 1 pound and 1 ounce of instant noodles.

Modern instant noodles are generally around 75 grams per bag, and a large bag is around 120 grams. People in the Daliang Dynasty had a relatively large appetite on average, so the ones Zhao Yuanzhen made were 150 grams per bag.

Hire someone to make the dough, and have your own people make the seasonings, so there is no need to worry about secrets being leaked.

There are two kinds of seasoning packets, one is spicy and the other is not spicy.

Make it according to the modern seasoning packets, combine all three packets into one bottle, replace the beef with pork, and add some mushrooms.

When you become more proficient in it, you can add some other flavors.

Zhao Yuanzhen found the recipe for the instant noodle seasoning packet and gave it to Qian Xiaohui, asking her to study it.

Xiaohui is indeed talented in cooking. She made the dish right away according to the recipe.

Zhao Yuanzhen tasted the mushroom sauce, which was delicious. The pork selected had a little more fat, and it was very fragrant when stir-fried.

The mushroom sauce is much saltier than the usual dishes, firstly to increase the storage time, and secondly so that it can be soaked into the noodles and give them enough flavor.

We also customized several movable type stamps to print the expiration date on the packaging of each pack of instant noodles.

The shelf life is half a year, it will expire after this time.

"Qingyan, come here for a moment."

"What's wrong, sister-in-law?"

"Pick a few maids and make a batch of instant noodle packaging bags. They should be square tube-shaped bags that are about 16X16X18, with a drawstring at the top to tighten the bags."

"Okay, sister-in-law, I understand. What kind of fabric should we use?"

"Burlap will do."

"Okay, I'll find someone to make it now."

"Wait a minute, make another batch of these clothes, hats, masks, and gloves."

Zhao Yuanzhen took out the picture and showed it to her.

These are hats, masks, gloves and clothes commonly found in food factories.

Taking into account the ancient people's taboo on the color white, it was changed to light blue.

"You can use light blue or other light colors, and choose fine linen for the fabric. Use fine cotton for the gloves and mask, and make the hat have a drawstring. Make sure your hair is completely covered so it can't be exposed."

"Okay, sister-in-law, I understand. I'll design a set and show it to you."

"Yeah, okay. Go ahead."

"Yes, sister-in-law."

Just wait for the instant noodle shop to be completed, then put all the machines and supplies in and you're done.

There are 12 cooks in the house and 30 in the farm.

Ten people were transferred back from the farm and handed over to Qian Xiaohui for training. They were all fed loyalty pills and strength pills. These ten people will be used to make instant noodle seasoning from now on.

Put the necessary seasonings into different categories in ceramic buckets with lids in advance.

After all these were arranged, Zhao Yuanzhen finally breathed a sigh of relief and went to look at the flowers in the garden.

Most of them survived, but a few died due to reasons of not adapting to the plants. We then gave new seedlings to the gardeners and asked them to replant them.

Four maids were trained to be gardeners for the flowers, plants and trees at home. They had already been trained in how to plant flowers and plants, so Zhao Yuanzhen was relieved to leave it to them.

It is now the end of April, the factory building at home has not been completed yet, and construction on the Yellow River has not even started.

The progress is too slow, so Zhao Yuanzhen plans to find some more craftsmen and try to finish everything by mid-May.

I went to the building materials store first.

"Shopkeeper, are there any craftsmen?"

"You came at the right time. We just finished a batch of work. There are 30 craftsmen. Do you need them all?"

Fortunately, there are craftsmen, otherwise I would have to go to other shops to look for one. The owner of this shop is honest and the craftsmen do their work meticulously and seriously. Zhao Yuanzhen still hopes to select people from this shop.

"Okay, then we'll book them all, at the same manor as before."

"Okay, let them go tomorrow."

"Well, I still have a shop that needs to be renovated. Do you have any help?"

"Are you in a hurry? No, we can finish a group of craftsmen tomorrow afternoon, just in time for the renovation."

"Tomorrow afternoon is fine too. Then let's go check out the shop first?"

"Okay, Madam Zhang, lead the way."

The person was taken to the tea shop, which was a one-story bungalow of more than 100 square meters.

Modify the windows, build a few cement exhibition stands to display the products, build two bathroom model rooms, and make a few shelves and counters.

The backyard just needs a little repainting and tidying up.

Overall it is quite simple. Except for the cement, the shopkeeper is responsible for all the labor and materials.

It can be completed in 4 days.

The sewer in the bathroom is connected to the main pipeline in Beijing. As for the installation of the bathroom, our own people will come and install it.

This shop is in Yulin Lane, not far from the Tangshui shop, about 10 minutes away. Let’s go to the Tangshui shop for dinner.

Otherwise, we have to send the cook over to start the fire, which is troublesome.

Thinking that Zhang Xinshu has a day off tomorrow, I decided to stay in the shop for one night and go back with Xinshu tomorrow.

Her favorite place to stay is the beauty salon. After changing her clothes, she would randomly order a technician when there were no customers. She hadn't had a massage for a long time.

This little girl was sent here for training later. Her techniques were a little unfamiliar, but overall she was fine, though a little nervous.

Probably because the employees were meeting their bosses.

After the massage, I had dinner and found a rocking chair to enjoy myself.

"Ma'am, you're here?"

"Well, how did you find out?"

"Based on what I have learned in the past few days, this young lady is a bit stubborn and arrogant, but her character is good. We may need to see the details ourselves."

"Yeah, okay, I got it. Go order some new dances for me to see."

Zhao Yuanzhen planned to go to Yue Mansion in the evening to check and scan it, and observe Miss Yue at the same time.

"Yes, ma'am."

Lan Ying went to ask people to prepare.

When this piece is finished, it's ready.

Slowly appreciating it, the guests who had not left the hall also enjoyed a visual feast.

The first dance to be performed was the group dance from classical dance.

There is a reason why this man loves listening to music and watching dancing.

Every move and dance is graceful and elegant, with light lotus steps, swaying like a willow in the wind; every movement is light and elegant, as if dancing among the beating notes, or like a beautiful painting, which makes people intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.

There was a solo dance afterwards, and the little girl danced very well, lively and smart.
